While packaging is effective in reducing food losses, the increased use of petroleum-based packaging materials negatively impacts the environment. Edible films and coatings are considered a significant alternative in addressing this issue. Starch, due to its abundant presence in nature, biodegradable nature, and cost-effectiveness, is a widely studied biopolymer. However, its mechanical properties and sensitivity to moisture limit its use as a food packaging material. This article compiles the characteristics, production, and recent studies on starch-based edible films and coatings.
